Submission and Use of Résumés

All résumés are submitted voluntarily and with the candidate’s prior consent to be stored in the SommerGroup® database. Such résumés may be considered and/or used in current or future search and selection processes for our clients. SommerGroup® will share personal information exclusively with its clients, and only when there is a vacancy that aligns with the candidate’s profile.

In accordance with Article 4 of Law No. 19,628 (“Data Protection Law”), by registering on our website or platform, or by submitting your résumé through any electronic means, you expressly authorize SommerGroup® to store, share, and otherwise process your personal data for current or future search and selection processes for our clients, without requiring further authorization.

Use of Publicly Accessible Sources

By applying for a position, you expressly authorize SommerGroup® to use the personal data you provide for the purpose of obtaining or verifying additional information from Publicly Accessible Sources, as defined in paragraph (i) of Article 2 of the Data Protection Law. These sources may include, but are not limited to, records from the Civil Registry, Electoral Service (Servel), Judiciary, search engines such as Google, and others. Such verification may be carried out directly by SommerGroup® or through specialized third-party providers, solely to confirm identity and provide employers with relevant, additional information about the candidate.
